While psychotherapy is a regulated health profession in Ontario, it is unfortunately not covered under OHIP, OW or ODSP.

Most extended health benefits cover psychotherapy services (typically in your health and dental insurance package from your employer). We encourage you to speak with your insurance provider about counselling services provided by a Registered Psychotherapist to determine your eligibility and approved rates of coverage. Sessions will not be reimbursed if it turns out you do not have coverage.

Sessions are typically 60 minutes in length. Longer sessions may be arranged at an adjusted fee. The frequency of sessions will be based on the client’s needs. Therapy will continue only so long as it is beneficial to the client. The duration of the therapy will be mutually agreed upon, and the therapist will evaluate it on an ongoing basis with the client to determine its helpfulness. Sessions may be weekly, bi-weekly or even monthly.

You do not need a referral to book an appointment. Anyone is welcome who requires support in reaching their therapeutic goals.

The fee for therapy for 60-minute sessions is $165 for individual therapy and $195 for relational therapy (i.e. couple and friendship therapy). Longer sessions will be pro-rated at the hourly session fee rate.

Some individuals are only covered by their insurance for specific services, so please check with your insurance provider on your benefits coverage. When inquiring confirm if you are covered to work with a Registered Psychotherapist.

Your appointment time is created and held exclusively for you. We have a 24-hour cancellation policy for all sessions scheduled.

Same-day cancellations and cancellations made within 24 hours of your session will incur a charge of the full session fee.

The first session focuses on getting to know you! Before we dive into the difficulties or issues you are facing we focus on understanding who you are, identifying the important people in your life, exploring your values and beliefs, strengths and resources, as well as discussing your social location. In the subsequent session, we will identify what brings you to therapy and identify various stressors or risks. We will discuss what you hope to accomplish during therapy and will create goals together that support you in creating your desired change. After these initial sessions, the hope is for you to leave feeling more grounded with a plan in place to move forward in reaching your desired outcome.
